A man has Rs. 480 in the denominations of one-rupee notes, five-rupee notes and ten-rupee notes. The number of notes of each denomination is equal. What is the total number of notes that he has?

Question

Accepted Answer

Let number of notes of each denomination be x.

Then, x + 5x + 10x = 480 ⟺ 16x = 480 ⟺ x = 30.

Hence, total number of notes = 3x = 90.
